Write your answers in the spaces provided in this booklet. Do NOT spend more than 30 minutes on Question 1. ‘The solubility of a solid, X, in water at various temperatures is determined by the procedure described below. This procedure comprises a series of experiments numbered I to 5. Some of the data are recorded in Table 1. Procedure: = In Experiment 1, 2 g of X is added to 4 cm? of water in a boiling tube. The tube is heated while stirring in a water bath until all of X has dissolved. = Thesolution is then allowed to cool and the temperature at which the erystals of X first appear is noted and recorded in Table 1. = Ineeach of Experiments 2 to 5, the same mass of X (2 g) is added to a different volume of water as indicated in Table 1. = Ineach case, the temperature at which the crystals of X first reappear i displayed on the relevant thermometer in Figure 1. ‘TABLE 1: DETERMINATION OF THE SOLUBILITY OF X AT VARIOUS TEMPERATURES "Temperature Experiment Volume of | atwhich | Solubility of X Weber | MA8sOFX | water em) | Crystals | (e/100 ¢ water) Reappear (C) 1 2 3m 30 2 2 8 57 3 2 2 I 4 2 16 5 2 20 GO ON TO THE NEXT PAGE 01212020/JANUARY/F 2015 ACA |95°C —|o0'c —|s0C — 30°C as°c 50°C le —| |0' Expt Expt2 Expt 3 Figure 1.
